Csbey I think njtman is just yanking your chain man. The truck is very cool looking and the 8' stepside is a pretty rare piece to start with. The diesel express sounds cool but that is a fine truck just the way it is good work.

I wouldn't change anything either. If you did do the "Lil Red Diesel Express" it would be a truck Dodge should have built from the factory. It would look so correct with the 12v and factory stacks.

No problem, man.... We're all brothers in arms, here.... and I really liked the sign you had. It reminded me of the T.V. show which those guys go around.....(they're down around your way from time to time) and buy up old signs such as the one you have. Love the show, as they really show what life was like ... and the stuff we had... way back....

Don't spend more time on TV... as it's mostly just a waste of the precious time we have in life. There are a few exceptions, such as that show, and in all honesty, if I had a big shop to tool around in, I wouldn't even own a T.V. I basically catch the LOCAL news (minimal), weather, and a few targeted shows such as that one, Barrett Jackson, and Pawn Stars...

Still say you have the nicest looking D-series here..... but that's just my opinion, as I've always been partial to stepsides...

Be proud of that work that you've done, and get the bed sprayed with linex, otherwise I'll get frank and Mike after you....

Hey CSEBY,

Did you document the restoration ? I'm sure I'm not the only one here who would like to see the "in progress" pix. What did you treat the frame with ?... or just paint it, like I did mine ?

Wow, that's amazing..

Every morning for the last 24 years, when I wake up, and I look over to see my wife's big fat butt lying next to me, I gently say....


". absolutely no animosity towards you...."





I'm actually lying.... but that's besides the point.....
